>>39787234>Barbaracle and CloysterBoth have coverage issues. They have great STABs and one or two good cobverage move but there's always something that walls them, such as Quagsire or Toxapex. Cloyster however is a great suicide lead in ubers.
They're the fastest Shell Smashers, which is a big part of the reason they're the highest tiered ones.
>CarracostaWorse Barbaracle.
>CrustleToo slow even after a boost. Bigger coverage issues than the two above (walled by steels) and it's too slow to be used as a lead, despite access to both SR and Spikes.
>Gorebyss/HuntailOnly one STAB. Limited movepool. Again, very slow.
>MagcargoVery slow. Horrid defensive typing. Low offensive stats.
>MiniorVulnerable to THREE extremely common priority moves (Bullet Punch, Aqua Jet and Ice Shard). Shields Down, while great on paper, is actually very unreliable.
>OmastarActually great in rain. If it was more common it would be the best smasher in the game.
>Shucklekek
>TorkoalDon't even bother. It's meant to be a supporter and weather inducer, not a sweeper.
>TurtonatorSlow. Lowish offensive stats. Fire/Dragon isn't the amazing dual STAB combo it used to be.
